What systems are these people running?
I ask because when running on my real Amiga I have no problems what-so-ever with CD's, Where as on my Emulated Amiga (via WinUAE on XP) I have all kinds of problems reading CDs (I cant for example install OS3.9, Freespace or anything like that on it). I went through a whole load of settings and was in contact with the WinUAE developer about it. Finally we came to the conclusion it was down to the Max Transfer setting in the Mount file for the CD (Using CacheCDFS). I knocked a couple of zeros of the Max Transfer and since then I have had no problems reading the disks.
The above only happens within WinUAE though, My real Amiga hs no problems.
